When a relationship changes or ends

A separation can change routines, relationships, and the way to imagine the future. In adults, children and adolescents, the accompaniment part of how you live the situation and the particular needs of each person.

There is not a single way to live a break or an equal period for everyone. It may be necessary to reorganize daily life, recover support or think about how to maintain contact and boundaries. If there are children, their needs deserve attention while listening to what each adult lives.

Find support and recover stability

At ADIR, we ask what is difficult and how it affects daily life. We can explore changes in routines, relationships and available support to agree goals that fit your situation. You can seek individual support even if the other person does not want to attend.

When there are children, it is important to understand what they understand about change and how they are living it, according to their age and their time. It is not up to them to act as messengers or resolve adult disagreements. Joint work between adults requires assessing first whether there is a shared goal and conditions for speaking with security; reconciliation is not an obligatory goal.

It is not appropriate to consider joint work as an automatic response. It is important to be able to explain what is happening in a private space and to assess the needs of security and support. A situation of control is not simply a disagreement that both parties must resolve through dialogue.
